Signatures being collected to impose personal sanctions on Putin
The petition appeared on the website of the White House on May 22. Its authors are planning to collect 100 thousand signatures within a month.
Barack Obama’s administration will have to officially consider the petition then. The Russian President started the armed aggression in Ukraine. He asked the Federation Council for permission to use the Russian Army in Ukraine and refuted the presence of Russian soldiers in Crimea, the authors of the document say.
“We demand to impose personal sanctions on Putin and the Russian government,” they urged.
The petition to include Russia on the list of countries sponsoring terrorism got 100 signatures in less than a month, Euroradio reported earlier.
